地球科学国际大学联盟IUCES

 

 

"地球科学国际大学联盟"是世界地球科学高等教育机构按照自愿原则组成的国际教育合作组织。2012年11月6日,为加强地球科学领域世界高水平大学和科研机构的交流与合作,充分发挥我校在地质、矿产、能源、环境、海洋及空间科学等学科的综合优势,以应对全球资源短缺、自然灾害频发、生态环境恶化等跨学科和跨国界重大科学问题,由我校发起的“地球科学国际大学联盟”(英文International University of Consortium in Earth Sciences,简称IUCES)正式在湖北武汉成立。联盟成员包括:美国斯坦福大学、英国牛津大学、俄罗斯莫斯科大学、澳大利亚昆士兰大学、加拿大滑铁卢大学、澳大利亚麦考瑞大学、美国伯克利国家实验室、法国巴黎第六大学、德国卡尔斯鲁厄理工、俄罗斯圣比得堡矿业大学、中国地质大学(武汉)和香港大学等12所大学。中国地质大学(武汉)校长王焰新为首届主席。中国地质大学(武汉)作为联盟秘书处的常设机构,负责联盟的日常工作。

根据地球科学国际大学联盟章程,本着“平等自愿、互信互利、互相尊重、共同发展”的原则,在各成员所在国的法律允许下,致力于构建世界高水平地球科学教育机构合作交流的长效机制,促进世界地球科学教育和科学研究的协同发展。7年来,作为国内首个地球科学国际教育科技合作组织,地球科学国际大学联盟在科研合作、教师培训、联合培养博士生、本科生“2+2”项目、汉语国际推广等领域发挥着积极的作用。除此之外,联盟分别于2014年9月、2015年10月在中国地质大学(武汉)举办了第一、二届暑期学校,来自联盟高校的40多名学员参加了暑期学校,取得了圆满成功。2016年7月在德国与卡尔斯鲁厄理工学院共同举办了第三届暑期学校。2019年6月,在加拿大滑铁卢大学共同举办了第四届暑期学校。暑期学校的成功举办成为我校与世界一流高校深度合作的桥梁和纽带,也成为推动学校国际化办学的一个重要引擎。

The International University Consortium in Earth Science (IUCES) is an international organization focused on educational, scientific and technological cooperation. It was initiated by well-known geoscience research institutions such as CUG, the University of Hong Kong, the University of Waterloo (Canada), the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (Germany), Stanford University (US), Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (US), Macquarie University (Australia), and Moscow University. Since its establishment in November 2012 in Wuhan, China, IUCES has been committed to further exchanges and cooperation in the field of geoscience among world-class universities and research institutes.

Various forms of international cooperation such as international conferences, scientific research, exchange student program, joint training and mutual visits between instructors and students as well as the collaborative publication of papers has been developed among members of the organization. In particular, summer school has achieved a great success for three consecutive years. At this moment, preparations are under way for the summer school to be held at the University of Waterloo, Canada in June 2019.

Based on the principle of “equality, mutual benefit, and common development” and compliance with the laws of member states, the organization is committed to a long-term mechanism for cooperation and exchange among high-level geoscience education institutions in the world in order to promote common development of geoscience education and scientific research. All geoscience research institutions are encouraged to participate in the activities held byIUCES.
